This invention relates to a protein composition and method oimanufacturing it, and has for its 1 object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a composition or the class described.

5 The protein forming the basis 01 this invention is a lymphatic substance in the form of a treated dried extract from the lymphatic glands of an ox, sheep or the calf of a cow. The lymphatic substance may be combined particularly with and is especially useful in acomposition for improving the blood, embodying for examplez-Sodium iodide, sodium methylarsenate, an aqueous solution of Secale cornutum (ergot) carbolic acid and distilled water.

16 The preferred proportions oi the constituents oi the composition are to wit:

- Grams Lymphatic substance '0. Sodium iodide 0.20 20 Sodium methylersenate 0. 15 Aqueous solution of Secale cornutum 0. 05 Carbolic acid 0.03

Distilled water (0r 1 c. c.) 1. 00

The composition is a liquid.

The lymphatic substance is treated as follows for production of the protein product: 15.00 grams of the substance is diluted in 100.00 grams of distilled water and exposed for five hours to the action of 0.50 gm. of amylopsin, 1.00 gm. of

'pepsin and twenty-five drops oi. hydrochloric acid. This composition or mixture is then exposed for five more hours to the action of pancreatin, after which for ten hours it is dialized. After the dialization the compound is filtered and the filtrate is dried. The filtrate may then be combined with a mixture or the other constituents of the blood improver composition.

The proportion of the lymphatic substance may (ci. ice-ti) vary from 0.15 to 0.30 gm. in a cubic centimeter; that of the sodium iodide from 0.20 to 0.30 gm. and that oi the sodium methylarsenate from 0.15 to 0.20 gm. The proportions oi the other constituents of the composition do not vary. 5

e composition may be administered by mouth, the dose increased daily from three drops to thirty drops, increasing one drop a day; or by injections, the injections from 3/10 of 1 c. c. to V 0. c. a day according to the condition of the 0 patient.

The lymphatic substance increases the number and strength of the lymphocytes.

What I claim is:- Q

1. A composition for use in normalizing ab- 15 normal blood conditions consisting of a product derived by subjecting 15 grams of protein obtalned from the lymphatic glands of an animal, diluted in 100 grams of distilled water, to exposure for five hours to the action of .50 gram 20 oi amylopsin, one gram of pepsin, and twentyfive drops oi hydrochloric acid; exposing the mixture for five hours to the action of pancreatin; dlallzing the mixture for ten hours, filtering the mixture to obtain a filtrate, and drying the filtrate.
